Looks like the answer is 72.89 degrees, which is roughly equal to 73 degrees.
Answer:
0.06x + 0.15y = 69.84
x = (69.84 - 0.15y) / 0.06
y = (69.84 - 0.06x) / 0.15
x + y = 852
((69.84 - 0.15y) / 0.06) + y = 852
y = ?
(I'm not trying to give you the answer but guide you how to do it)
3 gallons of acid = 100% concentration acid
? (water+acid) gallons = 15 concentration acid
Note: Every gallon of water added reduces the percentage concentration of acid. Therefore, the relationship is inverse proportionality.
Solution:
Total number of gallons (water+acid) = (3*100)/15 = 20 gallons
Therefore, gallons of water = 20-3 = 17 gallons
Answer:
Let total number of dog and cat population in animal shelter be x.
As per the statement:
An animal shelter has 9 puppies.
⇒ Total number of puppies = 9
It is also given that if the puppies are 36% of the total dog and cat population.
⇒ 
or

By cross multiply we get;

Divide both sides by 36 we get;

Therefore, total number of dogs and cat population in animal shelter are 25
